RCTQ 2006-2007 BOM for March - Final (and real) One!

Ok, so now that I have made you all wait an extra day....here is the
final installment of our 2006-2007 BOM! I hope you all have had as
much fun making the blocks as I have had picking them out.

There are two things you need to remember at this point:

1. Send your pictures to Teri to post in the gallery!

2. The BOM will need a new host/ess for 2007-2008 - so please feel
free to volunteer now!

Enjoy!

How this BOM works is I will post block patterns each month near the
beginning of each month. One is pieced, one appliqué and one paper
pieced. It is up to you which one (or ones) you would like to do.
You will work at your own pace over the course of each month. You
keep your blocks. You do not mail them to me. At the end of the year
you will have twelve blocks to set into a quilt. You keep the quilt.
You do not mail it to me (unless you really feel the need to give me
this gift!). You will then have your very own 2006-2007 RCTQ BOM
quilt. When I announce a month's block patterns, I will also include
the previous months' as well so if you decide to join along the way
you will have all the blocks. Pieced blocks and paper pieced blocks
will be 12" in size whenever possible and appliqué blocks will be
whatever I can find that is available. Feel free to size up/down if
you so chose.

This BOM will run from April 2006 through May 2007. This is how the
schedule breaks down:
================================================== =============
April 2006 - March 2007: Monthly blocks
April 2007: Completing the Top (setting, sashing, borders, etc.)
May 2007: Completing the Quilt (quilting, binding, labeling, etc.) -
Done!

Marcia Hohn has a pin rating on her site (www.quilterscache.com) that
rates the level of difficulty of her block patterns. One pin blocks
are fairly simple and they increase in difficulty as the number of
pins increase. I will start with one pin blocks and increase our
difficulty as we go so that we are challenged, but not overwhelmed! I
also consider myself a fairly novice quilter, and these will all be
blocks I would be willing to try (well, maybe not the appliqué). Most
of the blocks with only have three colors to them; however, some of
them may have four.

Finished blocks can be seen at http://gallery.ppwp.com/gallery/RCTQ-2006-2007-BOM
I must give a very large THANK YOU! to Teri for maintaining the
gallery!

complicated as the yr progressed. nice choices for all of them.
i cant wait to see how those applique blocks come out this month.

three cheers for our 2006-2007 BOM hostess.
hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray!!!!!

hey John, that first pieced block chosen for March BOM might work for what
you've got in mind. just put the different fabrics in different positions on
the block. its also got that Irish Chain bit going for it.
will be less boring than a bunch of sqs, sqs, sqs, sqs, sqs.
now you got some action with those triangles in it. wooooohoooo.
just my 2 cents.
jeanne
has nothing at all to do with the fact i'm irish and its a star block )

block if you didn't post it and hey presto you did :-D

as my extra block to make up the amount I need I'll be making this one with
a less scrappy look:

no, last time part of the link was missing....email me which ones you
need and I will hunt for them for you..or post here...lol

I'm behind and had that problem too. For me it was Quilters Cache where it
happened. The lady there changed her file structure so the blocks aren't in
the same place -- but they are there! If you just go to
http://www.quilterscache.com/QuiltBlocksGalore.html
and look in the alphabetical listing. that's where I found the "missing"
blocks.

I like that crocus. I'm gonna make mine purple!

Thanks for all the applique blocks. I am very behind, but I'll get
them made eventually. I'm doing a kitten block right now. I forgot
which month it was posted, but that is where I am.
